Sports Park facilities

Our Sports Park is the name of our playing pitches, starting first of all with our fully floodlit, third generation, all-weather astroturf. We also have four grass playing pitches and two rugby pitches that are often used for matches by local teams.

These spaces are ideal for keeping fit and holding organised sporting events.

Sports Arena facilities

Our Sports Arena features our gym, our health and fitness suites and aerobics studio, as well as our sports hall. This epic space can be turned into two full five-a-side areas, as well as courts to play sports such as basketball, volleyball, netball and badminton.

These facilities are also available for hire, click here for full details.
